Okey dokey. Contest time! For the last two weeks I’ve been scouting around for plants that just might elude ready naming! I might be wrong. There are probably whiz kids among you who can Name Them All. Well, that would be a good thing for YOU, as you would be the winner of a copy of Plant Whatever Brings You Joy: Blessed Wisdom from the Garden. And this contest is open to everybody everywhere, so whoever is first able to name accurately all the plants pictured below will receive a free copy of my book, shipping covered regardless of where you live on planet Earth. 🙂 To be fair, this will entail keeping all comments in the moderation cue until the contest is won, for obvious reasons. Once a winner is named, I will post all comments at once. Fair? Yes? Okey dokey! Ready! Set! GO!

Good morning, Henriette, Looks like there was a communication breakdown between Finland and California! 🙂 Not to worry! The person who won the contest is Holly Swan and her answers were:
Loropetalum
Spirea
Paulownia
Viburnum
Kerria
Valeriana

Thank you so much, Henriette, for acknowledging the work on the blog. Coming from you, I am honored! Cyberhugs! Kathryn xoxo
